DESCRIPTION

This module provides methods for creating and merging conditional primitives ("$a && $b", "$c || $d", etc.) into more complex composite expressions.

METHODS

new_primitive($op, @coverage)

Create a new truth table based on one of the built-in primitives, which are the subclasses of Devel::Cover::DB::Condition. $op is one of the following:

and_3

"and" or "&&" with three conditional paths.

or_3

"or" or "||" with three conditional paths.

or_2

"or" or "||" with two conditional paths. (i.e., when the right hand side of the expression is a constant)

xor_4

"xor" with four conditional paths.

@coverage is a list booleans identifying which of the possible paths have been covered.

sort()

Sorts a truth table (in place) and returns the sorted object.

text()

Format a truth table to an array of strings for printing.

html()

Format a truth table in HTML.

error()

percentage()

Determines the proportion of possible conditions that have coverage.

right_merge($sub_table)

Merge entries from $sub_table into right column of table.

left_merge($sub_table)

Merge entries from $sub_table into left column of table.
